How can nutrition help in the mental health space?
Nutrition can provide another layer of support alongside the care you are already receiving. Areas that I consider may include: nutrient deficiencies, relevant blood work, nutrient absorption, alcohol and caffeine consumption and of course dietary intake and patterns. Where appropriate, I may also explore areas such as methylation and the utilisation of nutrients including folate and B12, as well as gut dysbiosis and its potential relevance to the individual. There is growing research exploring nutritional interventions as an adjunct to conventional mental health treatment. For example, omega-3 fatty acids, particularly EPA, have been investigated for their potential role as an adjunctive intervention in depression.
